Goal Categories
Plans are comprised of numerous interrelated pieces that work together to move a community forward. The goals and objectives are similar in that they also reach across topic areas to intertwine with related themes. The Kenton County Comprehensive plan goals and objectives highlight and celebrate these correlations through the use of goal categories. Read on to learn more about the main goal categories and how they are used in the goals and objectives matrix.
